Start Your Transformation Now⁠  How much thought have you really put into how powerful you are? Do you even see yourself that way or think of yourself that way? In reality, you are not all that powerful but you can command the power of the universe to work through you and you do that using your intention. And, when you do that, what I call synchronicities happen for you. In our 3D world, we see things happen that we intend or have been thinking about but we see or observe no 3D physical cause and we think “Wow, that's freaky, how did that happen?” St. Germain said many years ago, “When humans understand how the universe works they will cease to believe in miracles.” We work, like it or not, by universal laws. I'm not a proponent or a fan of the commercialized Law of Attraction, however, it's physics and a law of the universe which we humans have capitalized on so we (some) can make a buck. I often wish I could be like Tesla. He wanted to introduce free energy to the world and when he showed JP Morgan his creation and discoveries JP Morgan said, “Where do we put a meter on it?” Meaning, so that energy could be charged for. In the analogy I just gave you, I wish I could give or better help you realize the power of intention and what it can do in your life but until you agree to let go of your insistence in the dominance of a 3D reality, the power of intention will be hard for you to harness. In this episode, I share some of my personal stories about how I have used intention in my life and how you can too. It's pure power and you have this power!

On a quiet, long weekend in May of 2011, 20-year-old Maddy Scott set out for a camping trip with friends at Hogsback Lake near Vanderhoof, British Columbia. The next morning, her truck and tent were found, but Maddy was nowhere to be seen. There were no signs of struggle or clues pointing to where she had gone, only questions. Join Jen and Cam as they discuss "Maddy Scott: The Girl Who Never Came Home." If you have any information about the disappearance and subsequent death of Maddy Scott, please call the Vanderhoof RCMP at 250-567-2222, or you can leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. You can also visit the website madisonscott.ca for updates on this case. However, please refrain from leaving tips on social media websites, as they are considered hearsay. They must be reported directly to the RCMP, Crime Stoppers, or other law enforcement agencies.  Thank you to our team Listener Discretion by ⁠Edward October ⁠ Research & Writing by Lauretta Allen Executive Producers Nico & Jesse of The Inky Pawprint ⁠https://theinkypawprint.com Sources: http://madisonscott.ca/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Madison_Scott https://www.canadiantruecrime.ca/episodes/80 https://www.facebook.com/groups/205731539463196/  (https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Hogsback+Lake,+Vanderhoof,+BC,+Canada/Southslope+Rd,+Vanderhoof,+BC+V0J+3A1,+Canada/@53.9552327,-123.9995468,852m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x53884203fba01529:0xffa55c3ea22eb136!2m2!1d-123.8311179!2d53.843609!1m5!1m1!1s0x538845dfa2a27c53:0x208dc705a7d60596!2m2!1d-123.9962453!2d53.9528396!3e0?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDYxNy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D https://ckpgtoday.ca/2023/05/29/remains-of-madison-scott-discovered-at-vanderhoof-property/ https://ckpgtoday.ca/2023/05/29/remains-of-madison-scott-discovered-at-vanderhoof-property/ https://websleuths.com/threads/canada-madison-scott-20-vanderhoof-bc-27-may-2011.138458/page-5 https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-adventure/exploration-survival/vanishing/ https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/highway-of-tears https://www.kelownanow.com/watercooler/news/news/Provincial/Investigation_into_disappearance_and_death_of_Madison_Scott_still_ongoing_13_years/ 48 Hours Episode https://www.google.com/maps/@53.9620214,-123.9724543,3a,75y,174.73h,100.71t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sfTAQJy02KPL71BmmZUqn_Q!2e0!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fcb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26pitch%3D-10.710068350507001%26panoid%3DfTAQJy02KPL71BmmZUqn_Q%26yaw%3D174.73041652252357!7i13312!8i6656?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDYxNy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D https://www.newspapers.com/image/509848251/?match=1&terms=%22Madison%20Scott%22 https://www.newspapers.com/image/507425551/?match=1&terms=%22Madison%20Scott%22 https://www.newspapers.com/image/507417508/?match=1&terms=%22Madison%20Scott%22 https://www.newspapers.com/image/506378439/?match=1&terms=%22Madison%20Scott%22 https://youtu.be/ou3wt_ImUcA?si=I22hNtnbbUph0OgL https://youtu.be/cxaHb5s6eU4?si=NKeX_7wAKmHZgDW4 https://youtu.be/Xn0ROcjh7ys?si=m4ddjrUDJy3_fc9c https://www.newspapers.com/image/497717358/?match=1&terms=%22Madison%20Scott%22 https://www.princegeorgecitizen.com/local-news/murder-victim-suffered-gruesome-death-court-hears-3725783 Learn more about your ad choices.

The truth is, death doesn't sever bonds. Love doesn't end with a last breath. And if you've ever longed for one more moment, one more word, one more chance to say I love you… This might change everything.  In this powerful episode, I sit down with my dear friend Rebecca Rosen, a celebrated evidential medium and soul guide, for a live, unfiltered session that bridges worlds. Together, we explore how grief, while devastating, can also become a doorway, not just to healing, but to a connection far deeper and more enduring than you ever thought possible. Like so many of you, I've wrestled with the ache of loss, and I've also seen how that ache cracks us wide open to experiences that defy logic but speak straight to the soul. The truth is, our loved ones aren't gone. They're speaking… just in a different language. And once you learn how to hear them, you'll realize they've been with you all along.  We dive into: Why mediumship isn't reserved for a “special few,” and that we all have the gift of intuition How grief, trauma, and even daily stress can block your ability to connect—and how to shift it The difference between the 3D, 4D, and 5D realms (and how to access higher guidance) What the Akashic Records are and how they can reveal messages from your soul family How to spot signs from your loved ones and strengthen your trust in their presence Simple practices to raise your vibration, heal energetically, and create "heaven on earth" The truth about soul contracts, soul groups, and why even loss can serve your spiritual growth If you've ever doubted the whispers of your heart, this conversation will awaken you to a love that never dies. Press play. Open your mind. And prepare to meet them again, for the first time. P.S. Don't miss Rebecca's What's Your Heaven?—a breathtaking guide to finding peace now, not just in the afterlife.

Send us a textEver wondered why some shed companies break through revenue plateaus while others stay stuck? In this revealing episode, the Shed Geek Marketing team pulls back the curtain on what truly works for growing shed businesses, especially those in the crucial $7-20 million revenue range.We dive deep into why this particular revenue bracket represents the "sweet spot" for marketing partnerships - these companies have mastered their operations but need specialized marketing scaffolding to reach the next level. The conversation candidly addresses one of the industry's most contentious issues: data ownership. "You own everything when you work with us," we emphasize, contrasting this approach with unfortunate industry practices where companies hold client data hostage after relationships end.The team explores how effective marketing extends far beyond websites and social media, requiring seamless integration with your entire business ecosystem - from CRMs and POS systems to 3D configurators and sales processes. For manufacturers, we challenge traditional thinking about expansion: "Your digital storefront - how many lots do you have? Because you could put the same money into your digital storefront getting it started... is it any more expensive than a new lot? Certainly not."Looking toward the future, we examine how societal shifts toward tiny homes, ADUs, and sustainable living create expanding opportunities across the industry. "The next 50 years of the shed industry is not a zero-sum game," we note, highlighting how forward-thinking businesses should position themselves to capture disproportionate growth.Ready to transform how you think about marketing your shed business?

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim explores what it really means to experience freedom and independence—not just in the external world, but within ourselves. Building on his previous discussion about “seniority,” he reveals how true liberation comes from recognizing your spiritual authority, not from wealth, status, or nationality. If you've been seeking more ease in your finances, health, or life path, Jim makes a compelling case that reclaiming your seniority is the missing key.  Diving deeper, Jim challenges cultural narratives around patriotism, belief systems, and identity that often mask as freedom but actually limit us. He unpacks how our upbringing and societal conditioning cause us to give away our power, and why managing your energy and attention is crucial for regaining it. With personal stories—including a raw account of his 39-month house build—and wisdom from his mentor Don Javier, this episode offers both spiritual insight and practical reflection on how to reclaim the independence we all crave.  This episode is your wake-up call to stop seeking freedom externally and start remembering who you already are: a powerful soul with built-in seniority. If you're ready to step into true sovereignty, this is a must-listen.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Why We're All Born With Seniority (02:49) You don't have to earn freedom—you came into this life with cosmic power already built in.  How Socialization and Domestication Strip Our Power (05:46) From childhood conditioning to national identity, we unknowingly give away our spiritual authority.  Your Life is the Output of How You Manage Your Energy (09:11) Jim compares your life to a factory—what you create reflects how well you manage your seniority.  A Personal Lesson: When Chaos Hijacked Jim's Power (11:59) Jim shares how his house-building process derailed his energy—and what brought him back on track.  Freedom Begins With Attention, Not Action (15:13) Managing your attention in the 3D world is the gateway to reclaiming inner power.  How Belief Systems and Patriotism Replace Seniority (21:04) Jim explains how societal labels and even religion can brand us, masking our true spiritual freedom.  A Spiritual Person Asks Nothing of No One (26:53) What Don Javier taught Jim about sovereignty, asking Source—not society—for support.  The Hidden Cost of Attachment (29:00) Freedom also means releasing the ego's grip—because what you cling to, controls you.  Discovering Your True Power as Soul (32:00) Jim closes with a powerful invitation: Know yourself as soul, and you'll know true freedom.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Your true independence isn't found in your passport, your bank account, or your job title. It's in your seniority—your deep knowing that you are soul, Source, and creator. When you stop letting beliefs, fears, and attachments define you, you'll remember the truth: you are free because you are. Let go of the need to control, release the illusions of security, and return to the inner sovereignty that was never lost—only forgotten. Freedom isn't out there. It's already within you.  Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

TCW Podcast Episode 238 - Quake   We dive into the development of Quake, the ambitious and turbulent follow-up to Doom from ID Software. John Carmack set out to build a groundbreaking engine featuring full 3D rendering, dynamic lighting, and client-server multiplayer. This pushed the technical boundaries in a pre-GPU world. To achieve this, he brought in legendary programmer Michael Abrash from Microsoft, selling him on the vision of Quake as a step toward the metaverse as imagined in Snow Crash. Meanwhile, John Romero envisioned Quake as a fantasy RPG inspired by a character from his D&D campaign, but lack of direction and his growing obsession with Deathmatch led to team frustration and eventual fallout. The result was a game that redefined first-person shooters and laid the groundwork for decades of engine development. It also marked the end of an era at ID with the ouster of John Romero.   TCW 030 - DOOM!: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/doom-1479057917/ TCW 197 - The ID of Game Development: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-id-of-game-development/ Doom States and DeHackEd: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTa3diypjv4 P2P vs Dedicated Servers?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt3ZLHKcP2U Token Ring - The Betamax of Networking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjLctlmZSp4 Artie - The Strongest Man In the World: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6Bh3LskNbs Space Strike (DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtDdEuKFQps Cosmic Crusader (DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKOTa5iQAw8 Big Top (DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXUCacgF72M Snack Attack II (DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hu-SEjcnnjo So You Haven't Read "Snow Crash": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO64ZhBYy9E Ramblings in Realtime by Michael Abrash: https://www.bluesnews.com/abrash/ QuakeWorld Launch Event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXw6BkZ-gdY Quake (DOS 6.22): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyLC1vR9oGk Quake Longplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7GagGXXUtI Excerpt Quake Postmortem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2OE-74bTQw   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1     Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

I hate to break it to you, but it's not 3D chess. It's not even checkers. The clowns in DC and the swamp rats are taking turns throwing checkers at each other and the average moron on the street is distracted by the drama, and trying to avoid catching a stray. Meanwhile ICE is getting attacked, illegal missing children are picking pot, and everyone is being stupid. ihadtosayitpodcast.com

A renowned sarcoma surgeon, in recent years Mayerson has been utilizing 3D printing to create replacement “bones” for sarcoma patients. “We can take scans and create [with the 3D printer] ‘bones' the exact size of what we remove.” In a new clinical trial “we've found that if we give immunotherapy concurrently with radiation therapy it helps the radiation works better,” Mayerson said, adding “we have the first proton radiation center in Ohio and that allows us to hone the beam to a smaller area and damages less tissue.” Mayerson and the sarcoma team have been collaborating with the world-class veterinarians at Ohio State Veterinary Medical Center to create a probe that allows surgeons to see, in real time during surgery, the difference between normal tissue and tumorous tissue. Seeing the difference enables surgeons to remove less normal tissue, which leads to better function and quality of life for patients. “We used pilot data funded by Steps for Sarcoma to apply for and receive an Ohio State President's Accelerator grant,” Mayerson said. Steps for Sarcoma is the annual fundraising walk; the next Steps will be held September 21. After operating on a patient from Ecuador, Mayerson and the sarcoma team “were asked to help build the program there,” he said. An Ecuadorian surgeon spent a year at the James working with Mayerson and his team, additional physicians will be trained and “our sarcoma tumor board helps guide them in treating their sarcoma patients … This has been one of the most satisfying things I've done in my career, to know that we're impacting patients a couple thousand miles away.”

In this episode of The ICHE Podcast, David Calfee joined by three experts who contributed to the development of the updated SHEA guidance on high-level disinfection (HLD) and sterilization: Dr. Emily Sickbert-Bennett, Dr. Audrey Calderwood, and Dr. Erica Shenoy. Together, they bring expertise in infection prevention and hospital epidemiology to a discussion of what's new, what's changed, and how this guidance can be applied in real-world settings. The episode begins by exploring why an update to the 2008 CDC guideline was necessary and how this new document builds upon and clarifies existing practices. The speakers walk through the multi-year process that began in 2018, outlining the rigorous evidence review and unanimous consensus required for each recommendation. They also clarify what was considered out of scope, including topics such as low-level disinfection, environmental cleaning, and access or cost concerns. Listeners will learn how to interpret the guidance within their own institutions, including when no formal recommendation is provided due to insufficient evidence. The episode highlights emerging technologies like disposable scopes, 3D printed devices, and borescopes—discussing which are ready for clinical use and which require further evaluation. To close, each guest offers a practical action item to help listeners improve safety and quality related to HLD and sterilization in their own facilities. This is a must-listen for anyone involved in infection prevention, reprocessing, or clinical safety.

For decades, chromatographic purification has made use of bead-based diffusion - a reliable but limiting approach, especially as new modalities like gene therapies, mRNA, and viral vectors push the boundaries of what's possible. But what if the future of downstream processing lies not in incremental improvement, but in a dramatic reimagining - from slow diffusion to rapid convection?In this episode, David Brühlmann meets Scott Wheelwright, Chairman, CTO and Co-Founder of BioChromatographix International (BCI). Scott brings decades of expertise in biopharmaceutical development and manufacturing. Prior to BCI, he co-founded Biolnno Bioscience, a leading CDMO, and co-founded Innovent Biologics, one of China's foremost biotechnology companies.Here are three compelling reasons to tune into this episode:Breaking the Mold of Purification: BCI's AXISFLOW™ Platform moves beyond bead-based processes, using advanced 3D-printed monoliths that enable convective flow, making purification of large biomolecules and viruses faster, more efficient, and better suited for next-generation therapies.Innovation Starts with Imagination (and Measurement): True progress in bioprocessing often hinges not on what we can make, but on what we can accurately measure and imagine. Scott reminds us that advances in analytical testing and creative thinking are the real engines of change.Biotech Demands More than Great Science: Success isn't just about inventing; it's about building with the end-user in mind. Scott's journey highlights the critical role of customer-centric product development, cross-disciplinary teamwork, and regulatory strategy - especially in a conservative, risk-averse industry.Curious how shifting from diffusion to convection could reshape your purification workflow?

In this episode of the PBL Simplified Podcast, host Ryan Steuer talks with leadership expert Matt Kutz to discuss the essence of leadership, the importance of inspiration, and the framework outlined in Kutz's upcoming book, Becoming Epic. They explore the concepts of excellence, perception, and the need for leaders to recharge and find inspiration outside of work. The conversation emphasizes the significance of self-awareness and the impact of leadership on others, while also introducing the idea of "3D thinking freefall" as a method to unlock creativity. The episode concludes with practical advice on managing and developing one's future self. Takeaways Leadership is the lid of the work that happens in schools. Inspiration is the driving force behind effective leadership. The Epic Framework includes excellence, perception, inspiration, and compassion. Perfectionism hinders excellence and should be avoided. Self-awareness is crucial for effective leadership. Compassion for oneself leads to compassion for others. Inspiration often strikes outside of work environments. 3D thinking freefall enhances creativity and problem-solving. Leaders should model the behavior they want to see in others.

HIGHLIGHTS“The continuity, depth, and scale of the structures we're seeing suggest the original mine was just the tip of the iceberg.” — Gordon Robb, CEO, ESGold Corp.District-scale potential: 1,200m deep structures may indicate a much larger system beneath the historic mineDual-track upside: Near-term gold-silver production alongside deep exploration potentialLow-risk entry to cash flow: Fully permitted tailings operation means no big CAPEXNo dilution model: Exploration to be funded by internal cash flow, not equity raisesHigh-margin profile: Surface tailings allow for low capex and rapid paybackTop-tier jurisdiction: Located in mining-friendly Quebec with strong infrastructureWith gold reaching all-time highs in both USD and CAD, ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU | OTCQB: ESAUF) is emerging as a rare junior with both near-term cash flow and long-term exploration potential. The company is advancing toward gold-silver production at its fully permitted Montauban Project in Quebec, while newly released subsurface data points to a potentially district-scale system beneath the historic mine.In its latest technical update, ESGold reported the identification of geological structures extending to depths of 1,200 metres — far beyond previously mined zones — based on results from advanced seismic imaging.NEW TECH UNLOCKS OLD GROUNDThe discovery was made using Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT), a modern, non-invasive technique that maps subsurface structures using naturally occurring seismic waves. This method allows ESGold to model underground features without drilling, minimizing cost and surface impact. The early results suggest the Montauban system may be significantly more extensive than previously believed.“We're seeing signatures that resemble the structural architecture of globally significant systems — but we are still in the early stages of exploration.” — André Gauthier, Director of Exploration, ESGold Corp.PATH TO PRODUCTION ALREADY IN MOTIONWhile exploration potential is expanding, ESGold remains focused on near-term production. The company is fully permitted and in the midst of facility construction, targeting initial operations by late 2025. By processing surface tailings — already stockpiled — ESGold aims to generate early revenue with minimal capex and no underground mining.The newly expanded 4,000 sq. ft. processing facility is being designed to handle 500–1,000 tonnes per day. An updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), expected by the end of summer, will reflect current metals pricing and provide further economic detail.DE-RISKED EXPLORATION FUNDED BY CASH FLOWUnlike many exploration juniors dependent on public financings, ESGold intends to use its production-generated cash flow to support future drilling. This strategy helps preserve shareholder value and reduces dilution. A 3D geological model, incorporating data from the ANT survey and historical drilling, is in development and will guide next-phase targeting.A JUNIOR WITH MAJOR AMBITIONESGold is positioning itself to become both a producer and a long-term explorer — a rare dual capability in the small-cap mining sector. With construction progressing, a PEA pending, and district-scale potential under evaluation, the company is entering a high-catalyst phase.Watch the full CEO interview with Gordon Robb on AGORACOM to learn how ESGold is transforming historic ground into a modern growth story in Canadian gold.

"DRAGU - Documentare și Restaurare pentru Activarea Generațiilor Următoare" este un demers de revitalizare rurală programat să se întâmple în localitatea Dragu din jud. Sălaj. Proiectul are ca scop cercetarea, conservarea și valorificarea patrimoniului imobil al localității, prin organizarea unei Școli Internaționale de Vară cu ateliere de arheologie, conservare și inventariere digitală. Dezvoltăm subiectul cu invitata emisiunii RFI360, Anca Majaru, dr. arhitect - manager proiect DRAGU (ARCHÉ). Asociația ARCHÉ anunță debutul proiectului DRAGU - Documentare și Restaurare pentru Activarea Generațiilor Următoare, o școală de vară internațională dedicată formării noii generații de specialiști, care propune o abordare transdisciplinară și participativă în salvarea și reactivarea patrimoniului cultural. Programul se va desfășura în principal în comuna Dragu din județul Sălaj și va reuni douăzeci de tineri din România și din comunitatea internațională. Participanții vor fi implicați atât în ateliere de arheologie, cât și în activități de conservare, gestiune a patrimoniului, cercetare și inventariere digitală, desfășurate în jurul castelului Wesselényi-Bethlen (1628), monument istoric de clasă A, și al morii cu valțuri, ambele aproape complet nevalorificate turistic, economic și comunitar. Pe parcursul celor două săptămâni, între 18 și 30 august, școala de vară propune, pe lângă aceste ateliere, vizite în alte localități cu patrimoniu valoros: Alba Iulia, Biertan și Sighișoara. Această cercetare de teren este menită nu doar să trezească interesul viitorilor profesioniști în domeniile arheologie și conservarea patrimoniului cultural din România și din străinătate, ci și să le ofere ocazia de a explora modul în care au fost încurajate comunitățile din aceste localități să se implice în protejarea, gestionarea și promovarea patrimoniului ca resursă culturală și comunitară. Totodată, în contextul școlii de vară vor fi organizate și două conferințe de specialitate la Dragu, facilitând dialogul dintre experți și cetățeni, sprijinind cu atât mai mult implicarea locală și subliniind uriașa importanță culturală și potențialul economic pe care îl au monumentele istorice. Tot cu gândul la implicarea comunității locale în eforturile de conservare, proiectul DRAGU include și o serie de evenimente de activare culturală, urmărind atât sustenabilitatea inițiativei, cât și integrarea sa în oferta culturală locală. De la momente de reenactment istoric, la o „discotecă pe casete”, programul include activități variate, menite să atragă un public cât mai larg. Astfel, organizatorii își doresc să împletească informațiile de specialitate oferite prin tururi ghidate cu intrare liberă la principalele obiective de patrimoniu local (castelul, moara, biserica de lemn, pivnițele grofului), cu povestirile locale, trăite, depănate în șezători cu localnicii, deschizând o perspectivă umană și personală asupra istoriei comunei și a monumentelor sale. În același spirit al autenticității, vor avea loc ateliere de meșteșuguri, precum și un atelier gastronomic cu ingrediente locale și rețete istorice culese din bătrâni. De altfel, importanța hranei conectate cu contextul natural și cultural local va fi explorată și printr-un atelier de identificare a ciupercilor și prin discuții publice pe tema ingredientelor culese din flora spontană, sub titlul „Din sălbăticie în farfurie”. Subliniind corespondențele dintre culturi va fi organizat un moment muzical sărbătorind cântecele din folclorul Țării Silvaniei, precum și cele ale locurilor din care vor veni și ceilalți participanți. Nu în ultimul rând, proiecțiile de fotografii și filme realizate pe parcursul școlii de vară vor constitui o parte esențială a proiectului, devenind parte a unei expoziții itinerante care va putea fi vizitată la Dragu, Zalău, Cluj-Napoca, București și în cel puțin două alte locații internaționale. Expoziția valorifică rezultatele școlii de vară, punându-le însă într-un cadru istoric mai larg, integrând documente de arhivă, precum și scanări georadar și LiDAR, modele 3D și experiențe VR. Asociația ARCHÉ este o organizație dedicată cercetării, conservării, valorificării și promovării patrimoniului cultural. Scopul său principal este de a sprijini și de a încuraja interesul față de patrimoniu, punând accent pe înțelegerea importanței sale sociale și a valorilor specifice. Încă de la înființare, ARCHÉ a avut în vedere facilitarea dialogului între specialiști din diverse domenii implicați în protejarea monumentelor istorice, precum și între acești specialiști și publicul larg.

How to maintain character consistency, style consistency, etc in an AI video. Prosumers can use Google Veo 3's "High-Quality Chaining" for fast social media content. Indie filmmakers can achieve narrative consistency by combining Midjourney V7 for style, Kling for lip-synced dialogue, and Runway Gen-4 for camera control, while professional studios gain full control with a layered ComfyUI pipeline to output multi-layer EXR files for standard VFX compositing. Links Notes and resources at ocdevel.com/mlg/mla-27 Try a walking desk - stay healthy & sharp while you learn & code Descript - my favorite AI audio/video editor AI Audio Tool Selection Music: Use Suno for complete songs or Udio for high-quality components for professional editing. Sound Effects: Use ElevenLabs' SFX for integrated podcast production or SFX Engine for large, licensed asset libraries for games and film. Voice: ElevenLabs gives the most realistic voice output. Murf.ai offers an all-in-one studio for marketing, and Play.ht has a low-latency API for developers. Open-Source TTS: For local use, StyleTTS 2 generates human-level speech, Coqui's XTTS-v2 is best for voice cloning from minimal input, and Piper TTS is a fast, CPU-friendly option. I. Prosumer Workflow: Viral Video Goal: Rapidly produce branded, short-form video for social media. This method bypasses Veo 3's weaker native "Extend" feature. Toolchain Image Concept: GPT-4o (API: GPT-Image-1) for its strong prompt adherence, text rendering, and conversational refinement. Video Generation: Google Veo 3 for high single-shot quality and integrated ambient audio. Soundtrack: Udio for creating unique, "viral-style" music. Assembly: CapCut for its standard short-form editing features. Workflow Create Character Sheet (GPT-4o): Generate a primary character image with a detailed "locking" prompt, then use conversational follow-ups to create variations (poses, expressions) for visual consistency. Generate Video (Veo 3): Use "High-Quality Chaining." Clip 1: Generate an 8s clip from a character sheet image. Extract Final Frame: Save the last frame of Clip 1. Clip 2: Use the extracted frame as the image input for the next clip, using a "this then that" prompt to continue the action. Repeat as needed. Create Music (Udio): Use Manual Mode with structured prompts ([Genre: ...], [Mood: ...]) to generate and extend a music track. Final Edit (CapCut): Assemble clips, layer the Udio track over Veo's ambient audio, add text, and use "Auto Captions." Export in 9:16. II. Indie Filmmaker Workflow: Narrative Shorts Goal: Create cinematic short films with consistent characters and storytelling focus, using a hybrid of specialized tools. Toolchain Visual Foundation: Midjourney V7 to establish character and style with --cref and --sref parameters. Dialogue Scenes: Kling for its superior lip-sync and character realism. B-Roll/Action: Runway Gen-4 for its Director Mode camera controls and Multi-Motion Brush. Voice Generation: ElevenLabs for emotive, high-fidelity voices. Edit & Color: DaVinci Resolve for its integrated edit, color, and VFX suite and favorable cost model. Workflow Create Visual Foundation (Midjourney V7): Generate a "hero" character image. Use its URL with --cref --cw 100 to create consistent character poses and with --sref to replicate the visual style in other shots. Assemble a reference set. Create Dialogue Scenes (ElevenLabs -> Kling): Generate the dialogue track in ElevenLabs and download the audio. In Kling, generate a video of the character from a reference image with their mouth closed. Use Kling's "Lip Sync" feature to apply the ElevenLabs audio to the neutral video for a perfect match. Create B-Roll (Runway Gen-4): Use reference images from Midjourney. Apply precise camera moves with Director Mode or add localized, layered motion to static scenes with the Multi-Motion Brush. Assemble & Grade (DaVinci Resolve): Edit clips and audio on the Edit page. On the Color page, use node-based tools to match shots from Kling and Runway, then apply a final creative look. III. Professional Studio Workflow: Full Control Goal: Achieve absolute pixel-level control, actor likeness, and integration into standard VFX pipelines using an open-source, modular approach. Toolchain Core Engine: ComfyUI with Stable Diffusion models (e.g., SD3, FLUX). VFX Compositing: DaVinci Resolve (Fusion page) for node-based, multi-layer EXR compositing. Control Stack & Workflow Train Character LoRA: Train a custom LoRA on a 15-30 image dataset of the actor in ComfyUI to ensure true likeness. Build ComfyUI Node Graph: Construct a generation pipeline in this order: Loaders: Load base model, custom character LoRA, and text prompts (with LoRA trigger word). ControlNet Stack: Chain multiple ControlNets to define structure (e.g., OpenPose for skeleton, Depth map for 3D layout). IPAdapter-FaceID: Use the Plus v2 model as a final reinforcement layer to lock facial identity before animation. AnimateDiff: Apply deterministic camera motion using Motion LoRAs (e.g., v2_lora_PanLeft.ckpt). KSampler -> VAE Decode: Generate the image sequence. Export Multi-Layer EXR: Use a node like mrv2SaveEXRImage to save the output as an EXR sequence (.exr). Configure for a professional pipeline: 32-bit float, linear color space, and PIZ/ZIP lossless compression. This preserves render passes (diffuse, specular, mattes) in a single file. Composite in Fusion: In DaVinci Resolve, import the EXR sequence. Use Fusion's node graph to access individual layers, allowing separate adjustments to elements like color, highlights, and masks before integrating the AI asset into a final shot with a background plate.

Welcome back! In this special episode, guest host and fellow Spitfire Elite coach, Jason Batchelor, "JB", records live interviews from the Professional Asian Pilot's Association Convention floor in Las Vegas, NV. You'll hear honest, unscripted conversations with aspiring aviators—some just days into their airline journey, others preparing for a major transition after decades of military service. From rapid interview timelines to navigating a cold, stoic interview environment, Kelly shares her perspective on staying poised when things don't go as expected. Matt, a retiring F-15E pilot and Air Force Colonel, reflects on transition out of the military and into the civilian career field—and how preparing for interviews doesn't always follow a structured military path. Finally, Kono, a first-time conference attendee, gets a shot at a mock meet-and-greet, gaining real-time feedback and direction for how to refine his message and lean into his authenticity. What You'll Learn: How quickly the hiring timeline can unfold—and why being prepared is key What to expect (and how to adapt) when an interview doesn't match your expectations Why early preparation matters when transitioning from military to civilian aviation The value of mock interviews, roleplay, and honest coaching  How to highlight cultural fit and personal story during meet-and-greets    CONNECT WITH US Are you ready to take your preparation to the next level?

I recently recorded a podcast with Peter, the creator of Open3DOLED - A hardware kit designed to allow certain high-refresh-rate displays to display 3D content like blu-rays and 3D video games.  While it's not currently an easy thing to accomplish, it may soon be the only way we can experience all of the really cool 3D content out there, as no new equipment supports it.  Even if you're not that into 3D, this was still a really cool conversation that I think my fellow nerds will enjoy!:Open3DOLED:  https://github.com/open3doled/open-3d-oledPeter and I also mentioned a few other projects related to this one and I wanted to link them here to make it easier:Blur Busters: https://blurbusters.com/MPC-BE:  https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpcbe/POT Player:  https://github.com/open3doled/open-3d-oled/blob/master/PotPlayer/README.mdWibble Wobble:  https://github.com/PHARTGAMES/WibbleWobbleCorePlease consider supporting this channel via monthly support services, tips, or even just by using our affiliate links to purchase things you were already going to buy anyway, at no extra cost to you: https://www.retrorgb.com/support.htmlT-Shirts: https://www.retrorgb.com/store.htmlAll equipment used to shoot this video can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/shop/retrorgb

Here's a hint on the topics of this podcast: Last time I made a podcast with a similar name it was about a 2D printer. Why do I specify? Well - that's your hint.Want to get into 3D printing yourself? Well for one more day, bambu lab is offering a sale on their 3D printers. I like bambu lab because they just work. No extra tinkering needed. I also recommend Onshape for your design work. It takes some time to learn, but they have a bunch of really cool tutorials that are extremely useful. (Not sponsored by the way – I love these programs myself!)Sources:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMWzMpjSJLMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f94CnlQ0eq4&t=562shttps://www.3dsourced.com/3d-printers/main-types-of-3d-printer-explained/

In this WGAN-TV Podcast, guest host Tom Sparks, Founder and CEO of Scan Your Space (a Division of Sparks Media Group), field-tests the Giraffe360 GO Camera in a real-world warehouse environment — walking through the scanning process, testing still photos, and reviewing the final deliverables. Tom captures multiple scan points inside a large warehouse on Mare Island, California, using the Giraffe360 GO Camera. Scans take around 58 seconds each, and the camera's SLAM-like behavior allows it to record measurement data while being carried — enabling floor plan generation with minimal scan points. Tom uploads the project to the cloud later that day and receives the completed 3D tour, floor plan, and still photo by the following morning. --- The Giraffe360 GO Camera is designed for real estate agents who want an easy-to-use, all-in-one camera for creating professional-looking property tours without needing extra devices. In contrast, the Giraffe PRO Camera is built with the advanced features and control that real estate photographers expect — making it ideal for high-volume professionals seeking refined results and maximum image quality. --- Tom's final verdict? The Giraffe360 GO delivers a fast, user-friendly workflow without needing a tablet or phone. He finds the 12MP still photo useable, the ANSI 765–compliant floor plan impressive, and the 3D tour polished. However, he suggests slower transitions and Ken Burns-style effects in the auto-generated video for better viewer experience.

Go read this! https://IdentityBasedmanifesting.comWrite me 3 headlines for this. I get flooded with motivational videos people send me all day. And guess what? I almost never watch 'em. Why? Simple. I don't need motivating. I don't need someone else firing me up. Know why? Because I'm already manifesting.You see, if you're truly manifesting from your chosen state—your real desired identity—you'll never need motivation. Motivation is something people chase when they haven't changed who they are yet. They're still stuck in their old identity, hoping something outside them can jumpstart their engine.Here's the kicker—those folks always have plenty of time. Time to watch, time to share, time to talk about motivation. You know why? Because they aren't busy living the adventure. They haven't stepped fully into their new identity. They're still tip-toeing around the edges, hesitating.That's why they get tired, worn out, drained. And what happens next? They blame their subconscious. "Oh, it's self-sabotage! It's my subconscious holding me back!" Or maybe it's the moon, right? A new moon, a full moon—some cosmic nonsense. They start chasing silly stuff because they've denied the simple truth:You gotta change YOU first.This is why we teach something we call "stacking your states." It's simple, it's effective, and it's bulletproof. Forget going to war with the 3D world. You're wasting your time. Forget mantras and meditation. They're fine, sure, but that's not manifesting.Manifesting happens when you change YOU. When you stack states, you're not just changing what you see—you're changing WHO is doing the seeing. Read that again. It's not about making little mind movies and looking around to see if the world changed. It's about stepping into your chosen identity so powerfully that what you see naturally shifts because YOU have shifted.If this feels forced or fake, good—you've noticed you're still stuck in the old you. You're feeling resistance because your old identity is kicking and screaming against real change.Here's the truth nobody else is telling you:It's not enough to visualize. You've gotta actually become the new identity. Stop going halfway. Dive in completely. Live from your chosen state, your chosen identity. When you do that, motivation becomes a joke because you'll be too busy living the life you've imagined.Let that sink in.Until next time, my name's Mr. Twenty Twenty. Keep exploring that wonder-working power of your imagination. Catch you soon.

Flying a fully loaded 757 with shifting weather and unexpected system faults isn't the kind of day any pilot hopes for—but sometimes, it's the one you get. In this solo episode, Nik shares a real-life flight that became a case study in slowing down, resetting, and leaning on your team. He walks us through a recent scenario that started with a simple maintenance issue during taxi-out but escalated into a near runway incursion. It's easy to think, “That would never happen to me.” But after hearing Nik's story, you'll understand just how quickly things can spiral—and why, in moments of pressure, the best thing you can do is slow down, stay deliberate, and trust your crew. What You'll Learn: Why "stop the plane" is sometimes the smartest first move How to expand your team when you don't have all the answers  How to manage operational curveballs (like MELs, reroutes, and shifting winds) How to create psychological safety in the cockpit Why speaking up could be the most powerful CRM move you ever make  How one FO's quick call potentially prevented a serious violation What it means to be “confident enough to be unconfident” CONNECT WITH US Are you ready to take your preparation to the next level?

  In June 2022, I bet a commenter $100 that AI would master image compositionality by June 2025. DALL-E2 had just come out, showcasing the potential of AI art. But it couldn't follow complex instructions; its images only matched the “vibe” of the prompt. For example, here were some of its attempts at “a red sphere on a blue cube, with a yellow pyramid on the right, all on top of a green table”. At the time, I wrote: I'm not going to make the mistake of saying these problems are inherent to AI art. My guess is a slightly better language model would solve most of them…for all I know, some of the larger image models have already fixed these issues. These are the sorts of problems I expect to go away with a few months of future research. Commenters objected that this was overly optimistic. AI was just a pattern-matching “stochastic parrot”. It would take a deep understanding of grammar to get a prompt exactly right, and that would require some entirely new paradigm beyond LLMs. For example, from Vitor: Why are you so confident in this? The inability of systems like DALL-E to understand semantics in ways requiring an actual internal world model strikes me as the very heart of the issue. We can also see this exact failure mode in the language models themselves. They only produce good results when the human asks for something vague with lots of room for interpretation, like poetry or fanciful stories without much internal logic or continuity. Not to toot my own horn, but two years ago you were naively saying we'd have GPT-like models scaled up several orders of magnitude (100T parameters) right about now (https://readscottalexander.com/posts/ssc-the-obligatory-gpt-3-post#comment-912798). I'm registering my prediction that you're being equally naive now. Truly solving this issue seems AI-complete to me. I'm willing to bet on this (ideas on operationalization welcome). So we made a bet! All right. My proposed operationalization of this is that on June 1, 2025, if either if us can get access to the best image generating model at that time (I get to decide which), or convince someone else who has access to help us, we'll give it the following prompts: 1. A stained glass picture of a woman in a library with a raven on her shoulder with a key in its mouth 2. An oil painting of a man in a factory looking at a cat wearing a top hat 3. A digital art picture of a child riding a llama with a bell on its tail through a desert 4. A 3D render of an astronaut in space holding a fox wearing lipstick 5. Pixel art of a farmer in a cathedral holding a red basketball We generate 10 images for each prompt, just like DALL-E2 does. If at least one of the ten images has the scene correct in every particular on 3/5 prompts, I win, otherwise you do. Loser pays winner $100, and whatever the result is I announce it on the blog (probably an open thread). If we disagree, Gwern is the judge. Some image models of the time refused to draw humans, so we agreed that robots could stand in for humans in pictures that required them. In September 2022, I got some good results from Google Imagen and announced I had won the three-year bet in three months. Commenters yelled at me, saying that Imagen still hadn't gotten them quite right and my victory declaration was premature. The argument blew up enough that Edwin Chen of Surge, an “RLHF and human LLM evaluation platform”, stepped in and asked his professional AI data labelling team. Their verdict was clear: the AI was bad and I was wrong. Rather than embarrass myself further, I agreed to wait out the full length of the bet and re-evaluate in June 2025. The bet is now over, and official judge Gwern agrees I've won. Before I gloat, let's look at the images that got us here. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/now-i-really-won-that-ai-bet
